| 1 [[A Song of Ascents. David's.]] If it had not been, Yahweh, who was on our side, oh might Israel say: | 
 | 
 | 
| 2 If it had not been, Yahweh, who was on our side, when men rose up against us, | 
 | 
 | 
| 3 Then, alive, had they swallowed us up, in the glow of their anger against us; | 
 | 
 | 
| 4 Then, the waters, had whelmed us, the torrent, gone over our soul; | 
 | 
 | 
| 5 Then, had gone over our soul the waters so proud! | 
 | 
 | 
|   | 
 |  | 
| 6 Blessed, be Yahweh, who gave us not as prey to their teeth. | 
 | 
 | 
| 7 Our soul, as a bird, hath escaped from the snare of the fowlers, The snare, is broken, and, we, are escaped: | 
 | 
 | 
| 8 Our help, is in the Name of Yahweh, who made heaven and earth. |
